Women - Born to flow

Women - Born to flow

When you’re listening well

And really tuned in

you can feel it

See it. Sense it. Be it.

The current

That silent everlasting flow

threading moments into meaning.

It moves through the spaces

between everything

palpable, electric,

like two hearts remembering

they were one

Like a memory

from the deep

But life

Life does get noisy

lose the signal,

drift from flow

Forget to breathe

Forget to listen

And the current

She never leaves

I just wander

lust away

Anchor

the only constant

is this too shall change.

It’s the rule, the rhythm, the tide

that won’t be stilled

It washes things relentlessly

Away every time

No matter where you look

You never step

in the same river twice

And the current

She dances with it

Moves in tune with the chaos

Never afraid to shift,

to flow, to break, to begin again

She’s my holy love.

And life

life has always been

my favorite mistress.

Fast. Fierce. Full.

I take the sharp edges

That come with it

Scars I am proud of

But now,

now silence calls.

A fiery redhead

with freckles like scattered stars.

She speaks in stillness.

And somehow

she pleases me most

When she does nothing but

Breath and meet

My

Eyes

Grab it. Eat it. Miss it.

These are the beauties

Of life

And yes, bitter sweet

change, like love,

is the current.

Always there

Always moving

And when I’m brave enough to listen

I remember

I was born to flow
